Butterfly Plush

[potato_head]

I made this butterfly for my cousin, she requested it in pink to match the baby room they're putting together for her baby, which is coming soon :3







The two sides of the wings are two different fabrics, although they're both minky. The plain side is a pink super-plush minky, very very soft and cuddly! The other side is a tie-dye pink-on-white minky, more silky than cuddly.







The body is made of yet more minky, this one with a striped pattern.



It's more symmetrical than most of the photos look! I had a lot of trouble photographing it because it's big, almost too big to fit in my lightbox LOL. Notice how in a lot of the pictures, only part of it is in focus...to see how it's properly symmetrical, check the very first photo.

Across the wings at the widest point it's a bit over 17", the body is 13" long. The whole thing is hand-sewn as per usual. I couldn't figure out a baby-safe way to include antennae so it has none.
